THE CONSTITUTIONAL CENTENNIAL
The Board Of PromOtion Arranging loz
the CelebratiOn I'm 1850.

The executive committee OF the board OF promo
ton for the proposed centennial celebration In this
city held meeting last evening at WIZARDS Hotel
Ii Is proposed, In q short time to call meeting OF
the entire board, which is composed Of some three
hundred citizens OF this CITY, for the purpose Of
hearing report OF what has been done and what
Is proposed TO be done in securing the success Of
the celebration OF the centennial of the Const!tu-
ton TO be held In this city In 1889. There Is
another board, which Is national in character and
has representatives from every State in the Union,
and the local board above referred to works In
harmony with the national board.
Mr.. Anderson the secretary Of the board, in con-
plan OF the board this Celebration was merely pre-
iiminary 70 the proposed grand exposition OF the
discovery OF America by Columbus. ut is thought
proper, he continued "that the celebration OF the
ea Of tne constitution should be hsd 10
American republics should be invited to take part
In the celebration OF the centennial Of the Const
modelled. The date which the board has nxed for
the centennial OF the Constitution Is the 4th OF
March March 1859; There is, however. q difference OF
correct t.u In Philadslphis you remember
the Constitution by the convention, and
they maintained that this date was the
Of the
instead OF selecting that date It would be more
correct 70 have the celebration in June 1883 which
would be the centennial OF the ratification OF the
Constitution by the ninth state. Then 1t was that
the Constitution received the Endorsement OF the
required proportion Of the thirteen States The
board, however, thinks that as the Constitution
went into effect on March 4, 17s9 that date is It's
true centennial In New York city, however, they
are making preparations for a centennial Observ-
ance on April 80, 1884, for on the Both Of April,
17S9, General Washington was inaugurated as the
frst President Of the United states, and on this
account II is claimed that It is proper to celebrate
the centennial on that DAY. There Is no objection
on the part OF the board to Constitutional ceebra-
ZION on that day or any other, In New York city
or in any other CITY, but the board does maintain
that there should be some observance Of this ami
versary In the capital OF the nation. The entire
matter will be presented to Congress for its action
decision will raachad

Who will be Here. Thursday.
The most important business transact
ed at the meeting was the appointment
Of a Committee, who with q similar Com
mitttee appointed by the City Council,
will meet q representative of Compa-
ny, Thursday, who want to put in electric
lights and q tele phone system. Cons,d-
cradle time was given to the discussion
of the hew school buildings. Following
is the report of the Secretary:
In absence of the President and Vice
President the Secretary read article Sd
of BY Laws. and G. G. Adams was
chosen President pro tenn and took
the chair. IS
Minutes Of last meeting read and on
motion were approved.
G. w. Tay Tor, of Special Committee on
Railroad reported that he persuaded the
committee of which he was a member,
not to attend the meeting Of those inter-
ested in the Winona s. Southwestern r.
r., at Spring Valley, on the 9th inst. as
he had just come from there and was
convinced that it would be waste of
time and money to pay any attention to
that, as owing to our position geoglaph-
ically it was positively out of the ques-
ton for the road to come here.
Reports of committees called for fur
ther. There being none to report, Mr..
Taylor and Mr.. Weisel reported. as mem
bers of the Board, that they had seen
the working of the Albert Lea electric
lights and they thought seven electric
lights would light our city much better
than the present lights used by our city.
Mr.. Taylor stated that there would be
man here this week representing an elec-
trio light company, and he moved that a
committee of three be appointed to con-
fer with this man and committee from
the City Council. Mr.. Taylor's motion
was carried, and on motion c. w. Tay-
lor. r. o. Hall and D.
II. StimsOn were chosen as such commit
tee. s~
Mr. Belden brought up the matter of
the proposed issue Of $1,000 bonds by
Independent School District No, 81. He
stated that it seemed to him that the ex-<
penditure and investment of the funds
of this school district in maintaining
and establishing schools, was matter of
the greatest Importance. He believed
the Board of Education
would like the expression and sugges
tion of the Board of Trade ON the sub
ject. After some discussion by different
members, Mr.. Mcbride offered the follow
ing:
Considering the urgent need lof additional
school buildings in this School District, this
Board recommends that the voters of the In
dependent School District No. ~, attend the
special school meeting. to be held March 26,
and vote in favor Of Issuing $1,000 bonds TO
take 10 outstanding Indebtedness, aud to
procure additional school facilities.
After some discussion the resolution
was passed.
G. d. Belden moved that a committee
of three be appointed to confer with the
Board of Education in regard to the ex-
penditures. locations, etc. Motion was
carried and on motion of F. p. Mcbride.
Jacob Weisel, r. O. Hall and s. e.

A NEW CONFER.

"A NE " CONx
Mr.. Boom, of Boomersville, is in the
city and expects to locate here. Mr..
Boom has spent several years in visiting
cities and towns of the Northwest, and
has made favorable impression. He has
never before visited Austin, on account
of the demand for his services in other
places. After careful consideration of
the advantages offered by other places,
he has decided that Austin is the best
place for him, providing that the citizens
extend him the cordial greeting he is
accustomed to receive. Mr.. Boom Is q
very sensitive gentleman. and will not
remain where people are inclined to snub
him. We are afraid that there are some
men here who are so inclined, but we be-
lieve that they will be AMONG his sup
porters after they have become better
acquainted with him, and have seen what
he can do for the city. The more help
he receives from the people, the better
he can do his work So long as Mr..
Boom remains in the city we should do
what we can to entertain him and keep
him here E 8. 3tsz5s ~

TOO INITIATIVE.
Why q Venerable Maiden Lady Had to
Part with an Initiative Bird.


A gentleman residing in Ceylon wished
to make present to maiden aunt of his
living in London, and he could think OF
nothing so suitable and likely to be a
source of amusement to her as a mina-a
small bird, corresponding in appear ance
and size to an English blackbird, and riv-
aling the parrot in powers of imitation
Proc uring good specimen Of the species,
fresh from the forest he set a watch
upon his own tongue, avoiding all slang
and being very careful in respect OF
